The Interstate 10 on-ramps from Veterans Memorial Boulevard in Metairie are scheduled to open Friday at mid-day. They are the last major pieces of work to be completed in the $86.6 million overhaul of the I-10 interchange at Causeway Boulevard, a spokeswoman for the state Department of Transportation of Development said Thursday.

Once the ramps open, Veterans motorists may turn south to enter I-10 eastbound or westbound, spokeswoman Bambi Hall said. After that, only minor work and clean-up remains on the job, she said.

With the new ramps open, the temporary access from Severn Avenue to westbound I-10 will close in about a week, Hall said.
